Pentax are the proud winner's of this month's PC Authority Digital SLR readers' vote. 10 models were tested and readers were invited to vote for their own cameras. Whilst the number of votes for market leaders Canon and Nikon were significantly higher, as would be expected, the votes from Pentax owners were "consistently enthusiastic".

Image quality wasn't an issue for any of the brands, but Pentax scooped the award with 94% of owners being very satisfied with "value for money".
